S.T.E.A.M. Fest at Gattis

First annual STEAM Festival was held at Gattis Elementary on April 19th.

Students and community members displayed and lead demonstrations related to Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math for everyone to enjoy. This night will take the place of our usual Science Fair. Students in the 4th and 5th grades students all contributed a project of their choice to complete. Several students from K-3 participate, as well.

Mozart with ActivInspire

Mr. Crenshaw our Music teacher tries some new interactive technology. He is using a Promethean ActivSlate to control the computer screen that is projected onto the screen through a data projector. Here his class is learning about Mozart with interactive sound clips, questions for the students, and images in an interactive software called ActivInspire. Students had a chance to use the slate as well and were motivated to pay attention. Great way to incorporate technology into the music curriculum!
